Depends on the Mood

What are your family’s top 3 favorite meals?

Yep the main foods eaten in our house are cat related. But as many a cat parent will tell you, they are hard creatures to please, they can also do the guilt look to perfection.

“Yes I know I struggle to get through the cat flap but I have big bones, and I’m literally wasting away here and it’s your fault for buying bilge!”

Then they will go and eat the bilge while you address your mental health issues.

The other game is:

“No not that. Definitely not that. Are you freaking kidding me? That’s just insulting.”

Then they will go to the first bowl of unmitigated crap and clear it.”

Yes we’re not crazy

We just love them and cats are like children, they can play you like a violin. They bring us much more than the odd food battle of wills. It’s nice to have something more important than you when you don’t have children.

In fact it’s important. It keeps you human. You can never mutter “People and their wretched kids, why do they keep fussing?”

You know, and you know that if you love your pets as much as you do, then the love they have for their children must be off the charts.

I’ll leave you with the immortal words of my mother.

“You dad comes first, then you two, then the dog. But sometimes I prefer the dog to the lot of you.”

I understood.

Us? Oh yeah we eat. Not that bothered what. Well except for ice cream and chocolate. They’re sacred. 😉
